If a speaker cable added 1 - 2 ohms of resistance would that be?


A good thing.

A bad thing.

A very good thing.

A very bad thing.

 

We are talking in generalities here. I am sure there are also exceptions.

Same thing in the old V8 cars you can sell people anything so long as the number of cubic inches is big enough!

Agreed 100%

Lots of gullible, easily persuaded types eager to spend money in their relentless pursuit of sonic perfection. Plenty of products available with absolutely no technical proof of their claims to improve what we hear. I browse this forum and find more laughable BS than useful information.

Ah old farmer the difference is you likely can’t buy one such as mine whether you have the cash and likely not…less than 80 made and I’m not selling. Lol

Listen to that music

No one has mentioned the potential audibility of the loss of woofer damping a series resistance of several Ohms would have although Erik and Mike circle around the fact. Of course plenty of “speaker selector” boxes have been sold and used by non-audiophiles that feature beefy 3 Ohm series resistors.
